the event

A Celebration of creating and sharing. Our evening celebrates: our work and mission; our donors and volunteers; and — most importantly — the lives saved and improved because of everyone’s effort. The Heart Ball promises to be an engaging evening of fun and passion bringing community and philanthropic leaders together. Last year, our Heart Ball campaign raised just over $51 million nation-wide allowing us to fund over $123 millon of research and programs across the country and in your community.

During past years, the Richmond Heart Ball has raised over $7.8 million to reduce disability and death from cardiovascular diseases and stroke. Locally, the American Heart Association funds research programs at Virginia Commonwealth University, the University of Virginia and Virginia Tech. The Richmond Heart Ball includes live and silent auctions, live music and a seated dinner. Each year the Heart Ball’s unique theme is anxiously anticipated by all participants. This year’s “Treasures” theme is sure to awe everyone in attendance. The Heart Ball enjoys the support of corporate, medical and social leaders in our community. With your support as a corporate partner, we are making a difference educating the public, funding critical research and saving lives.
